Tech Tuesday: Author Posting Rules Visibility


We are currently testing a bug fix update to Stories, 2.2.4, that also contains a minor, but important feature.  Site rules at the source when posting new Stories and new chapters and when editing them.

This is just a sample of the test code in process:

One of the issues we have at Gay Authors is that we have a lot of rules and standards that authors are expected to follow, but they are not always easy to get to.  This update will place rule boxes right at the point of use so that authors will no longer have to search for the rules for a specific area. 

 

This will help us keep to the site's visual standard and help authors stay within the rules.  The ones listed above are samples and we'll be putting them in place when we update the site.

 

On a different note, my move will finally be wrapped up on Saturday and I'll have a week to settle in before work starts up again.  This will let me spend some time writing and working on the site again instead of bouncing around like a madman. :)

Clarity and transparency about the rules are big pluses!   

 

Continued good luck on the move and somehow I can't picture you being any less busy after it's completed....:rolleyes:

This is great Myr. I know where to look, but helps new authors and visitors. Simplified is nice.

Good luck this weekend.

Great! No need for multiple tabs anymore, flipping back and forth to find rules.
